satisfy, within the delivery time frame specified by Buyer, a portion of the Products ordered by Buyer in compliance with this Agreement, Buyer and Seller will immediately meet and work together, in good faith, to identify an appropriate resolution
to the supply problem, provided that subsection (d) below shall remain applicable with respect to any such problem. Any agreed resolution to the supply problem will be set forth in a writing executed by both parties. 
  
 (d) In the event Seller cannot or does not properly supply all of
Buyer’s requirements for Products on a timely basis in accordance with this Agreement, then, upon reasonable prior written notice to Seller, Buyer shall be free to engage a third party manufacturer of Products or manufacture Products directly

the Products to the designated common carrier for shipment at the place of shipment. Seller shall package each Product for shipment in accordance with its customary practices therefor, which practices shall be customary and reasonable in the
pharmaceutical industry with respect to similarly-situated products, unless otherwise specified in writing by Buyer at least thirty (30) business days prior to such shipment, in which event any reasonable, documented extra costs incurred by Seller
on account of the packaging changes requested by Buyer shall be promptly reimbursed by Buyer.

product recall, market withdrawal, or field correction with respect to Products, including Products sold or distributed by Seller prior to the Effective Date, without Buyer’s prior written consent, required to comply with any Applicable Laws;
Seller shall not effect any other product recall, market withdrawal, or field correction with respect to Products without Buyer’s prior written consent. If a Product recall, market withdrawal or field correction does not result solely from

transportation and/or disposal costs incurred by Buyer and not recovered by Buyer in respect of such recalled, withdrawn, or field corrected Products. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller’s indemnification obligations under Section 8.1 nor liability with respect to product liability
or personal injury resulting from Seller’s gross negligence, intentional misconduct, or breach of Section 7.1(a) shall be in any way limited by this Section 3.7(c).

 Within thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of Products to the destination specified by Buyer, Buyer may inspect and analyze such Products delivered
to Buyer for purposes of determining whether the Products meet their Specifications and comply with all Applicable Laws, including cGMPs, in all material respects (“Acceptable Products”). Buyer shall notify Seller in writing within

as Acceptable Products. 
  

	 	5.2.	Disputes over Products. 

  
 If Seller, after good faith consultation with Buyer, disputes any finding by Buyer that a Product is not an Acceptable Product, then representative
samples of such Product shall be forwarded to an independent third party jointly selected by Seller and Buyer, in their reasonable discretion, for analysis, which analysis shall be performed in compliance with industry standards and applicable FDA
regulations and governmental regulations for re-testing of pharmaceutical products. The findings of such third party regarding whether the Product was an Acceptable Product shall be binding upon the parties. The cost of such analysis by such third
party shall be borne by the party whose determination of whether or not the Product was an Acceptable Product differed from such conclusion of such third party.

at Seller’s expense including shipping costs, or destroyed in an environmentally acceptable manner, in accordance with applicable governmental regulations, at Seller’s expense. This Section 5.3 sets forth Buyer’s sole remedy
for any Products that are rejected by Buyer under Section 5.1 as not being Acceptable Products. Seller shall have no liability to Buyer under this Section 5.3 if a Product fails to meet Specifications if such Product (a) has been
subject to misuse, negligence or accident other than by Seller or its agents, representatives, or subcontractors, or (b) has been stored, handled or used by Salix or third parties other than Seller’s agents, representatives, or subcontractors
in a manner contrary to Applicable Laws.
